Banana Protein Smoothie Bowl

About This Recipe

This smoothie bowl is a five-minute breakfast powerhouse — frozen bananas blended with protein powder and a splash of milk into a thick, ice-cream-like base, then loaded with crunchy granola, fresh berries, nut butter, and chia seeds. It feels like dessert but fuels your morning with protein and fibre.
